A SENSATION.

Why is it that three bottles of b. B. B. are
sold In Atlanta TO one of any other blood
remedy, and twice as much consumed in the
State of Georgia as any other PREPARATION
No one need take our word, but simply ask the
druggists. Ask the people. They are compe-
tent witnesses. Six houses in Atlanta are buy
ing b. B. b. in five and ten gross lots, and
some OF them buy as often as every two
months. Why these unprecedented sales here
at home with so little advertising? Modesty
forbds us making a reply. Had b. b. B. been
before the public quarter or half a century,
it would not be necessary to be bOlstered up
with Crutches of page advertisements. Merit
will cOnUuer and down money!

that during the time she has been writ

The Dallas Llberator, a paper of the

the organ of no party and the advocate
OF principles as above. When the Lib
orator finds mo profit" from its venture
and cannot pay rent" 1t will very likely
love interest" in any farther advocacy
OF such principles" This, however, is
free country and the Liberator is at
liberty to llberate men from the luxury
of profit as rapidly as it can make out
the papers. Texas is big state, and

anything, but hardly room enough for

THERE are more rumors afloat concern
ing Manning's physical health and
working ability, than could be verified
or disproyed by corps OF Pinkerton's
detectives. No two telegraph reports,
or special correspondents letters agree.
One will portray him a broken down,
decrepid, feeble, old man, with the fire
of mental vigor alone keeping him from
the chill OF the grave; another will rep
resent him as the very embodiment of
robust health, taking his duties like a
young man Of half a score of years.
Manning is telegraphed as saying he
will not resign, will not leave Washing
ton, will not stay in Washington, has
put his resignation in Cleveland's hands
to take effect next May. etc., etc., etc.

ALL indications in Europe are to the
effect that war rumors are not likely to
grow less as the spring approaches.
The resignation OF the Italian minister
for foreign affairs does not give assur-
snce Of any peaceful feeling. The re-
verses Of his people at Massowah are
regarded as largely owing to Russian
assistance Of the Abyssinians, and the
war feeling in the Italian states grows
more bitter. A conflict between Austria
and Russia would be particularly well
come to Italy just now. In the mean
time Germany and France persist In
saying that the peace of Europe is no
way endangered by them. The drawing
and leveling Of loaded pistols by two
angry and old time combatants, lie not,
in this county at least, usually regarded
as sign OF peaceful intentions.
